There were rumours they’d play the Broncos there in late October but those rumours appeared to be fake.

Hawks are one of 6 teams that haven’t played there as yet as the managing director of NFL UK said his goal is to bring them all over so if they don’t play there this year, you can almost guarantee it in either 2019 or 2020.

Let it wait till 2019 or 2020, maybe they will decide to stop imposing more difficulty on teams every year, if they want teams in the UK create a league there and then you can have two Super Bowls for each country, the United States Champion and UK Champion then have the real Super Bowl.

Nothing against the UK, but it robs United States fans of games they pay for every year be it tickets or advertising, they have experimented with the "INTEREST level now long enough, they keep going back, therefore it must be there.

Give them a 8 team league to start with. Or let Vince McMahon do it and give him a league there, he is going to restart the XFL again here anyway.

Maybe Cable and Bevell will get Head Coaching gigs there

To Be P/C or Not P/C That is the Question..........Seahawks kick Ass !!!! Check your PM's, Thank you for everything Radish RIP My Friend. Member of the 38 club.

So what happens to the prices of season tickets for fans of teams that play a "home" game in the UK? Do they just pay for one less home game that season? I can't imagine the team would still charge for the normal 8 home games. Regardless it's crappy for those fans that have 1 less home game that season.

Correct you pay for one less game

Which is why we should go along with playing in London as an away game. I would prefer it was an east coast game so that a short west coast trip doesn't turn into a long flight.

if we don't go along with an away game it is only a matter of time before a home game gets moved to London.....

Definitely wishful thinking on his part. My dad was into the NFL the first time it was an actual fad and he shares similar pessimism, I think it's that generation. Of course they didn't have these live games and all the NFL content you could ever want online then.

The NFL is all about business, and the interest for American football in Europe is growing fast. Lots of Norwegians visit Wembley and Twickenham every year, and if the Seahawks are coming to London this year I will certainly be there. If it happens it will be an away game, so why not be positive about it. Good for our substantial fanbase in Europe.

Would love this to be the case but I still can't see us going this year.

There are a huge number of UK 12's now - very passionate and I know a strong number of us fly over every year to catch a game or two.

Can understand the pessimism to an extent because if the reverse happened to my soccer team I would not be happy, but the NFL is a different business and London games are hugely successful. The sport has grown massively here since they begun and the NFL is gaining popularity all the time. There is no reason for them to cut back, and if not a franchise, I think in a few years there will be 8 games a season here to a mimic a regular season home schedule, even if the teams are different.

Really hoping it's not til 2019, but I have a feeling it's gonna' be a road game vs. the Raiders in Oct. of 2018.Wife and I are committed to go, have a place to stay etc. Can't pass up a chance to finally get out to London.But, like someone mentioned above, wait til 2019. Between Andy and Deano, we will be in good hands out there. Time to order an extra liver

Agreed, even as a London based fan I would not have wanted to lose a home game. One potential bonus is that bye weeks are usually taken straight after the game and one would hope this means its quite near Week 8 / 9.

Cannot wait for this. Season ticket holder the last few years, finally the Hawks. My only worry is a) if the stadium isn't finished, and b) if there is an issue getting tickets, as I know they want to offer them to Spurs fans...
